Project Mercury and Project Gemini
Project Mercury (1959-19630Project Gemini (1962-1966)Project Apollo (1961-1972)
It was the 11th mission in the Apollo project. Like the planets, many US rockets and space projects carried names from mythology. The first manned project was called Mercury, after the winged Roman messenger. The second, Gemini, came from the sign of twins because the capsule carried two astronauts. The Apollo project was named by NASA manager Abe Silverstein who thought "Apollo riding his chariot across the Sun was appropriate to the grand scale of the proposed program."

Yes, the spacecraft Apollo 13 was named after the Greek god Apollo, known for being the god of light, music, and healing. The Apollo program, which included Apollo 13, was named after Apollo because he was associated with the sun and light, symbolizing the project's goal of shining light on the unknown mysteries of space.
Apollo 3 was a test flight and therefore had no crew.

Apollo was the Greco_Roman sun god. Most Nasa missions drew names from Classical mythology, this being no exception. Apollo program was the manned Lunar Program and some predecessors and left-overs- Apollo Command modules were used in the Skylab and Apollo-Soyuz project which were strictly Earth-Orbital.
